Watch Information

SIZES:

Watches are commonly sold in three sizes being ladies, unisex or midsize and mens. A unisex or midsize watch is suitable to be worn as a large ladies watch or for men who prefer a smaller watch and band.

MOVEMENTS:

Watch movements can be either quartz, mechanical or automatic. Please check the item description to determine whether the watch you are bidding on has a mechanical, automatic movement or a quartz/battery run movement.

Quartz movements are the most accurate as they are powered by a battery. Once the watch is set little adjustment is needed. A quartz movement will continue to work as long as the battery has power. The life time of the battery varies by movement, person and how the watch is used.

Mechanical movements do not require batteries and contain moving parts. They need to be wound to work. When they are not regularly worn or regularly wound they will stop working. The period of power reserve varies by manufacturer but most need to be set and wound daily. Mechanical watches trend to be less accurate than quartz watches and need to be serviced on a regular basis.

Automatic movements do not require batteries and contain moving parts which when moved cause the watch to work. When they are not regularly worn they will stop working. The period of power reserve varies by manufacturer with some Seiko Kinetic watches being able to work for months without being worn. Automatic watches trend to be less accurate than quartz watches and need to be serviced on a regular basis.

TEMPERATURE:

Your watch works with in a temperature range of 5°C and 35°C. Temperatures outside of this range may cause the watch not to work and can cause permanent damage. The use of your watch in temperatures outside of the range stated will void any warranty claims.
